[samigo-team] [Fwd: [Building Sakai] Sakai CLE 2.9.0 release status]

[Jacqueline Mai Krueger]

Hi there,

In the event you're not subscribed to sakai-dev list, below is message 
about Sakai CLE 2.9 release being on hold until it has additional resources.

For those not on the call today and want to know about SAMigo 2.9 
release status: there some contributed code that is causing issues - 
Karen (SAMigo lead developer) may revert if doesn't hear from developers 
responsible for the contributed work. Since SAMigo team has not done a 
release on our own, we would need assistance from Sam Ottenhoff or CLE 
release committee. If we can get help, SAMigo 2.9 will be released 
before the Sakai conference.

I will find out more details about how much more SAMigo 2.9 QA is needed 
and will update the list.

-Jackie

Colleagues,
This is a status update for Sakai CLE on behalf of the TCC and the CLE
release teams. Unfortunately, 2.9.0 won't be released in the
March/April as initially projected. The release has struggled with a
number of issues including:

* Insufficient community participation in key areas of the release
process (e.g. perform testing/QA, fix bugs in certain areas like OSP,
etc.)
* Complications in the mechanics of the release process that are still
being worked through including use of the Sonatype OSS Nexus
repository, automated builds, and major changes in dependency
management
* Lack of dedicated, Foundation-led operational staff (e.g. full-time
QA director, full-time Release Coordinator)

We have no choice but to delay the 2.9.0 release until additional
contributors step forward to assist us. If your institution can
contribute QA testers for the 2.9 release, please join the QA working
group (sakai-qa at collab.sakaiproject.org).  If your institution can
contribute developers to fix and verify bugs in the release, please
join the volunteer CLE Team
(cle-release-team at collab.sakaiproject.org). Without additional
community or foundation involvement, 2.9.0 will not be officially
released.

TCC Chair
Aaron Zeckoski
